Words to remember

Psalm 119:9-16 (NIV)

ב Beth

9 How can a young person stay on the path of purity?By living according to your word.10 I seek you with all my heart;do not let me stray from your commands.11 I have hidden your word in my heartthat I might not sin against you.12 Praise be to you, Lord;teach me your decrees.13 With my lips I recountall the laws that come from your mouth.14 I rejoice in following your statutesas one rejoices in great riches.15 I meditate on your preceptsand consider your ways.16 I delight in your decrees;I will not neglect your word.

About GettingCloserToOurGod

This blog is written by Todd Christenson. He was raised in Nebraska and currently lives on Long Island in New York.
Though out my childhood, my family attended church. We prayed together at meals. I thought I was prepared for life.
After college, I moved to New York City. Shy, unsure of myself, building an identity in worldly things, increasingly prideful, self-righteousness, a controlling nature.
In 2013, God spoke through someone, suggesting I confess my sins. I did. I realized that every day, I’d been glorifying myself, not God.
Today, God’s teaching me to have my identity in Him, only, my dependency in Him, not myself, being who He wants me to be, not the world, loving Him first, loving others as myself.
